Best Romantic Restaurants in Henrico

Our server Jenna was amazing!! She really made the whole meal memorable and special. I was blown away by her kindness and attention to detail. The food was also amazing, as always!! But this was probably the best dining experience I’ve had in a long time thanks to Jenna!

Cute and cozy, this is a little gem in Short Pump's Pump shopping center. Never mind that it's across from the Chik-Fil-A. You soon forget that after you enter this charming bistro for date night or a double date. I highly recommend it for wine lovers, although other adult beverages are served. (I would not bring kids or even teens, since it's really not a family restaurant kind of spot, especially with the wine shop at the entrance.) The service is knowledgeable and friendly, and the food is delicious, if a bit pricey. You can dine tapas style or choose from several starters and entrees. We did the latter, but the former would have been fun too. The Christmas specials, based on the owner's mom's recipes, were a very clever addition to the menu. My only criticism is that the specials menu, which was printed on blue paper with a tiny font, was a struggle for me to read in the ambient lighting without turning on my phone flashlight like an old lady; consequently, I did not order anything from that menu. The Wine Whisperer is a winner and sure to be a local favorite.

I had pick Buck heads to celebrate my Birthday with some good friends. It has always be a great steak house and the group loves good beef, everyone was impressed with the quality of beef. The waiter Doug made it a fun experience, he had a good sense of humor and was very attentive to table.

The food was delivered quickly to our table. The appetizers are so good, especially the cauliflower!

Our server, Aquila, was excellent! We ordered the Thanksgiving Feast, and it was perfect! Aquilla checked on us several times and ensured our beverages were full. Everything was superb, just as we expected from Shula's!
